At OVO, we're passionate about #decarbonising the grid, and harnessing the power of the sun to power our homes is one of the best ways we can do this. We've pulled together a Hub with everything to know about installing solar panels, including how they could not only reduce your #carbonfootprint, but also allow customers to sell excess energy back to the grid. Find out more below 👇
We recently celebrated #WorldHealthDay and this year the theme is 'Our planet, our health' - encouraging people to enjoy the great outdoors. It's our nature to like trees, and science has proven that just looking at them can make us feel calmer and happier. Trees are the best technology that nature has to combat the climate crisis, as they absorb carbon from the atmosphere and lock it away for many years, so tt #COP26, we announced a new commitment to plant 1 million trees in the next year. 🌳 Find out more about our tree planting from the link below.
Did you know that home heating makes up roughly 14% of the UK’s carbon footprint? Chancellor Rishi Sunak announced in his Spring Statement that VAT on the installation of energy-efficient materials in homes – such as solar panels and heat pumps – will be cut from 5% to zero. We've pulled together a Hub with everything you need to know about the technologies helping us to #decarbonise our homes. Find out more here 👇 #netzero #renewableenergy

Every £1 spent can generate over £10 of social value. That’s the power of the OVO Foundation - our member-powered charity. Through its work, we aim to give kids and young people across the world a greener, fairer future - from installing solar panels in Kenya to planting trees in the UK. Partnering with The Social Investment Consultancy, Social Value UK, and the charities we work with, we’ve pulled together our first ‘Social Return on Investment Study.'

Heating our homes accounts for 14% of the total emissions the UK produces each year. That’s why the transition to electric heating is fundamental to delivering Net Zero. In partnership with BEIS, Kaluza, Mitsubishi and Sunamp we have been trialling scalable, smart electric central heating that, when combined with renewable energy, can create a practical and low cost solution to creating the zero carbon home of the future, today. Tune in next Wednesday 23 March as we host a live seminar on the outcome of the trial. Register here: https://lnkd.in/eh64KcCq #PlanZero
Planting trees (the right type, in the right place) is one of the ways we can all do our bit to help fight the climate crisis. That's why we've committed to planting 1m trees in 2022 - and it's only through partnerships like ours with The Conservation Volunteers that we can hope to achieve this.

In light of the ongoing situation in Ukraine, we know that a lot of our customers will be worried about their friends and family in Ukraine and will be trying to contact them. As of Monday, 7th March, we are removing the charges for calls to Ukraine landline and mobile numbers for our SSE phone & broadband customers to ensure that customers wishing to contact friends or family do not have to worry about the cost of these phone calls. SSE Energy Services is part of the OVO family.
